Chapter 183: Asking for Credit, Begging for Reward, Plotting a Mutiny
Chapter 183: Inviting merit and begging for a plot to mutiny
The county seat of Lin'an County. Locust Street.
In order to cover Lu Yun's true identity and save Lu Yun, Lao Lu made up a set of rhetoric in a hurry. He didn't even know why he said that? But what can you say if you don't say that? Actually, Lao Lu didn't know who Lu Yun was? He only knew that as long as it was the person brought back by Francis, he must be a good person and must be protected at all costs. Otherwise, he would not have been able to account to Francis.
Lu Yun angrily blamed Lao Lu for talking nonsense. But on second thought, he said this to save me, and it didn't matter what he said or how he said it.
Captain Guan was angry, and his mind turned sharply: Lao Tzu waited for such a long time, and finally caught one, she is still a young and beautiful rich lady, even if she is not the Communist Eighth Route Army, nor is she a military commander, but a member of the Fang family? If you send it to Captain Eiichi Nakagawa, you will immediately receive a large bounty, and you can eat, drink and be merry for a while. It is also very likely that I will be promoted to be the vice captain, and Lao Tzu's promotion and fortune are just around the corner......
Thinking of this, Captain Guan glared at Lao Lu with angry eyes, and said in a vicious voice:
"What's the stubble? Old Lu Touer, block Heng'er? Lao Tzu is running an errand for the imperial army, do you dare to stop it? Don't you want to die? Get acquainted and get out of here! ”
"Captain Guan, she is really not a military commander, let alone the Eighth Route Army of the Communist Party, she is the second aunt that my master Fang wants to marry, do you dare to arrest her?"
"If you don't talk nonsense with me, I dare to catch even the king of heaven. Go away! ”
"Can't go!" Lao Lu stepped forward to loosen the rope tied to Lu Yun's body.
"Hey? Old Lu Tou'er, if I don't give you a little bit of power, you really don't know that Lord Ma has three eyes. With that, Captain Guan waved his shell gun and smashed it twice on Lao Lu's forehead.
was suddenly attacked, caught off guard, Lao Lu fainted and fell to the ground, bleeding nonstop.
"What are you seeing?! What's there to see? Get out of here! Take! Captain Guan waved the shell gun, dispersed the crowd of onlookers in a loud and vicious voice, and pushed Lu Yun, who was tied up with five flowers, and left Huaishu Street.
"Old Lu! Help me! Lao Lu! Lu Yun shouted as he walked.
Ding Wensheng, who was watching it clearly, jumped out of the dung truck, walked to Lao Lu's side and squatted, helped Lao Lu up, took out a white cloth and pressed it on the bleeding wound on his forehead, and then pinched the acupuncture point between his nose and lips.
A minute or two later, Lao Lu woke up. He opened his eyes and looked around, then turned his head to look at Ding Wensheng who was supporting him, staggered to his feet, and pulled his legs to chase Lu Yun. I didn't take two steps and almost fell.
Ding Wensheng stepped over to help Lao Lu, and whispered a reminder:
"Stop chasing, it's useless to catch up. Lu Tou'er, I think you have to go to Fang's house to report to Master Fang quickly, and take someone to intercept people in the middle of the road, but it's too late. ”
"Yes. But, Brother Ding, what did I say when I saw Master Fang? ”
"Just tell Master Fang as you just said, only by saying this can you save that girl. Lu Tou'er, get in the car quickly, I'll send you to report the news. ”
"Thanks, Brother Ding." Lao Lu sat on the left wheel of the dung truck.
Ding Wensheng sat on the right wheel, whipped the horse, trotted all the way, and ran towards the Fang family compound.
Shuihe Village. Village office. Eighth Route Army Supplementary Regiment. The conference room of the regiment headquarters.
Yu Genshan returned to the conference room, looked at the comrades-in-arms who were gossiping and talking, and said:
"Quiet! Listen to me. I have just reconsidered it, and I will have to make some adjustments to the military deployment tomorrow morning, and everyone must listen clearly. Ma Fucai led the 6th Company of the 2nd Battalion to carry out the exchange mission with me, Deputy Regiment Commander Han led the 1st and 2nd Companies of the Reinforced Battalion to be on covert alert at the east five miles of Shuihe Village to prevent the Japanese troops in Da'an Township from sneaking up on our army, and the 4th and 5th companies of the 2nd Battalion were on covert alert five miles northeast of Shuihe Village to prevent the Japanese army from attacking, and the 1st Battalion sent two companies to conceal and guard at the north 5 miles of Shuihe Village. The 3rd and 4th companies of the reinforced battalion were stationed in the defensive position of Shuihe Village, and the rest of the troops were in reserve. Yu Genshan pointed to the map on the wall to deploy troops.
Everyone was surprised, why did the head of the regiment suddenly change his mind when he went to the thatched house? Moreover, this deployment is not a comprehensive and prudent plan, with some blind movements that underestimate the enemy and take risks. There was a lot of discussion and noise in the conference room. Only Han Dagang and Ma Fucai looked calm, not surprised by Genshan's deployment at all, as if they understood something in their hearts.
Yu Genshan walked back to the conference table and sat down, took out a Hademen cigarette and lit it, and smoked it leisurely.
"Regiment Commander, your military deployment is really inappropriate." The commissar said questioningly.
"I'm against the deployment of the regiment commander, it's too dangerous." Huang Zhongde said loudly.
Some people objected, some questioned, and some reluctantly agreed.
Yu Genshan stood up, looked at his comrades-in-arms with a serious and solemn expression, and said solemnly:
"I am the military commander-in-chief, the supreme leader of the supplementary regiment, I have the final decision, everyone should stop talking about it, tomorrow morning's action must be strictly implemented in accordance with the deployment I just made, otherwise it will be dealt with by military law. Let's go back and prepare. Meeting! ”
Lin'an County. Linhe Township. Farmhouse. The station of a certain unit of the special column. Inside the North Room.
The connected hall and east room were filled with more than 30 soldiers. Yang Shushan convened a secret meeting of the fighters of the original supplementary regiment, and he looked at the fighters with great seriousness and said:
"Comrades and comrades-in-arms, it is a last resort to summon everyone to a secret meeting today. You all know the current situation and the state of this so-called special column, so I won't say much more. All of you here are Communist Party members who have been tested for a long time, and they are all veterans who have been squad leaders and deputy squad leaders in the supplementary regiment for a long time, and we are the real Eighth Route Army. Our inclusion in the special column by Francis is only temporary......"
Li Mantun, the deputy squad leader of the first platoon of the fifth company of the second battalion of the former Eighth Route Army Supplementary Regiment, said:
"Political Commissar Yang, didn't you have to stay in the special column in Shengcang Village at the beginning? In fact, Commander Wang is the lightly wounded Huishuihe Village Supplementary Regiment that has allowed us to act, and you are determined to stay. For this, you are still competing with Commander Wang......"
"Yes. You're right, that's what it was at the time. Why would I do this? As I said, the composition of the special column is complicated, including the soldiers of our supplementary regiment, the militia, the remnants of the Kuomintang army, and the bandits who have fallen into the grass and dominated one side. Fang Jiren, who was a big landlord and a big capitalist and was in the process of being dismissed from his post by the organization and examined for suspicion of being a special enemy, changed his name and surname to Wang Xingbang, changed himself into a commander, and privately formed a special column, completely detached from the correct leadership of our party and the direct command of the Eighth Route Army. This kind of unorganized and undisciplined bad behavior is absolutely not allowed by our party and the Eighth Route Army. However, at that time, the enemy situation was complicated, the situation was dangerous, and we all had injuries and illnesses, so I had to reluctantly agree. ”
"Political Commissar Yang, the composition of the special column is indeed complicated. But Commander Wang led a special column to fight devils is not ambiguous at all, and it is no worse than our supplementary regiment, which should be affirmed. Another fighter said.
"I admit that it is not ambiguous for the special column to fight devils. However, many people in the ranks of the devils have impure motives and unclear goals, and they only want to avenge their personal and family revenge, and they do not have lofty political ideals and revolutionary goals. This is a no-go. ”
"Political Commissar Yang, when many of our soldiers in the Eighth Route Army joined the army, they also took up arms to fight desperately with the little devils in order to avenge their personal revenge and family revenge. Later, under the guidance of the Party's education, he raised his consciousness and had political ideals and revolutionary goals. Kuomintang soldiers and bandits can also be educated and reformed. Li Mantun said.
"You're right, that's how I got here. However, we are too different from the Kuomintang soldiers and bandits, and there is an essential difference. We embarked on the revolutionary road from ignorant rural youths who directly joined the Eighth Route Army, and they came to our ranks only halfway through the road, when their lives were at stake, and they had no choice but to join our ranks, and their foundations were different. Maybe it can be transformed, or maybe it can't, it's hard to say in the complicated and harsh war times. There may be chaos in the future, and if they rebel against the water at a critical moment, they will become the enemy of the Eighth Route Army. Yang Shushan said sternly.
"Huh?! Is it possible? Commissar Yang, what should we do? ”
"Comrades and comrades-in-arms, in order to maintain the reputation of the Eighth Route Army and maintain the purity of the Eighth Route Army, we must find an appropriate opportunity to arrest and detain Fang Jiren, control the entire special column, and then take the troops back to Shuihe Village to replenish the regiment, hand it over to the regiment commander for processing, and reorganize the troops after examination and screening."
The crowd discussed for a while, and finally unanimously agreed on Poplar Hill's plan.
"Political Commissar Yang, isn't there a major military operation tomorrow morning? Will we talk about it in two days? Li Mantun said objectively.
"It is precisely because there is a major military operation tomorrow morning that we should take decisive measures to bring the team back to Shuihe Village and join the supplementary regiment. In this way, tomorrow's military operations will be more certain of victory. Yang Shushan said resolutely.
"Political Commissar Yang, for the sake of the revolution and the Eighth Route Army, what should you do? You just give the order. ”
"Good! Comrades, let's go to the headquarters now to arrest and detain Commander Francis, and act immediately! Come with me! ”
More than 30 heavily armed soldiers followed Yang Shushan out of the north room and left the farmhouse, and walked majestically towards the headquarters of the special column.
